To open an editor on the file choose one of the following approaches:</P>
<ul>
  <li>
    To edit a resource using the default editor for that resource you
can either double click on the resource (in the Navigator), or select the
resource and choose Open from its popup menu.&nbsp;</p>
  </li>
  <li>
    If you want to use a specific editor to edit the resource, start
by selecting the resource in the Navigator, and choose the Open With option from
the popup menu.</p>
  </li>
</ul>
<p CLASS="Para">The workbench remembers the last editor that you used for
editing a specific file. This makes it easier to use the same editor down the
